Film opens in Japan on Friday

The third film in the revived Berserk animated franchise, Berserk Golden Age Arc III: Descent is set to open in Japan this Friday and the first TV ad has started airing across Japan as of Saturday. The ad features composer Susumu Hirasawa's theme for the film in "Aria" and will carry a revised rating due to its more extreme content compared to both previous films in the arc.

Closer to home, Viz Media's Neon Alley is actively airing the first film in the series via its online linear channel while also selling it on home video on DVD and Blu-Ray. After seeing the teaser, I think the third film just might right the wrongs of the first two, if the running time of 107 minutes is any indication. Anyone looking forward to it?
